Best buy2play MMORPG on the market. Get frigged, WoW and others.

"You are not prepared".
It was a ride. I started Cyberpunk 2077 after all the great fixes and patches so I can't say anything about bugs, because I haven't encountered any.
I didn't play the game in a session but in many different sessions, making new characters and having a great time just ignoring many parts of the main story.
Until I decided last week to start new and play through the main story finally. It has been a real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ride. With my rather naive and good-hearted approach the game kicked me in the nuts and ate my sanity. I stumbled into the "Arasaka Ending" by making decisions I thought would be good for everyone. How wrong I was. The game just destroyed my illusions, my character, Johnny and a bit of myself. I haven't felt so miserable since watching "Leaving Las Vegas" or "Cincinnati Kid".
This game is wonderful piece of Art with a real great story and I don't regret playing it. I just regret not having listened to Johnny.
Thanks CDPR.

I would recommened this game to other players.

If you have friends you wanna play in private sessions I recommend it. For casual online play it's utter crap. Based on a very low playerbase you get very one-sided matches that are no fun at all. You get thrown into matches vs. at least 3 good players and your team fills with bots. There seems to be no matchmaking at work that at least balances the teams by playtime or general statistics.
I really want to like the game but playing bots is soon boring and getting stomped wit 56 to 2 in a "random team deathmatch" isn't the exception but the standard.

I recently started and I really like the game. As someone who grew up with the Conan movies and was disappointed with "Age of Conan" this game makes many things right.
Pro:
- the world is great
- the crafting system is fun
- it's even more fun to play with friends
- it's one of those games where you end up playing to 3am and wonder where your day has gone

Contra:
- character customization could give you more options
- some annoying bugs like crashing to desktop

tldr: If you like the world of Conan, you will most likely have fun in this game for many hours. Try it with friends.

I still not finished the Enhanced Edition, because I play it as a multiplayer on a weekly basis, but I think this game is the best "oldschool" RPG out there. It's fantastic. Buy it, support those great people that brought a game on the market that is at least on the same level as Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment or Pillars of Eternity. The game has a lot of eastereggs, great humour and should be in every steam library.
No, I don't get paid for this. I just love it and it had to write a review for the steam awards stuff - and why not about this awesome game?

Buy it. It looks like a teenage girl game first but it's hell o'fun!
